How do I take part? 🤔

Simply pick a sweepstake subject (see our suggestions below), register your Luck Up, and we’ll get a sweepstake pack out to you. 

We suggest a donation of £2 per entry. Choose the prize level for the lucky winner and donate the remainder to Blind Veterans UK.

There’s no limit on how many sweepstakes you can hold, simply print out as many forms as you need.

How much does it cost? 💷

Nothing. All we ask is that you raise as much as you can for Blind Veterans UK.
